Movie collection «The Worricker Collection»
The 2011 BBC Two film "Page Eight" was followed in March 2014 by "Turks & Caicos" and "Salting the Battlefield". The three films are jointly known as The Worricker Trilogy. All three films feature Johnny Worricker (Bill Nighy), a long-serving MI5 officer, who learns that the Prime Minister knew about secret US rendition camps long before the British intelligence community knew about them. When the PM realises that Johnny knows, Johnny has to flee the country. And while in exile in the tax haven Turks & Caicos, Johnny learns even more disturbing things about the PM, before he has to flee again.
